The Ford Model is an automobile that was produced by Ford Motor Company It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting. It is inevitable that at some point, your daily commute will be as simple as saying “go to work” or “take me to the grocery store” and kicking back while your over-intelligent car does all the work for you. Ford has taken the first step in joining the list of manufacturers with self-driving technology and has received approval of its patent for a backward facing driver seat.

Ford created a massive publicity machine in Detroit to ensure every newspaper carried stories and advertisements about the new product. Ford's network of local dealers made the car ubiquitous in virtually every city in North America. As independent dealers, the franchises grew rich and publicized not just the Ford but the very concept of automobiling; local motor clubs sprang up to help new drivers and to explore the countryside. Ford was always eager to sell to farmers, who looked on the vehicle as a commercial device to help their business.
